Ultrathin Tropical Tropopause Clouds (UTTCs): II. Stabilization mechanisms

Mechanisms by which subvisible cirrus clouds (SVCs) might contribute to dehydration close to the tropical tropopause are not well understood. Recently Ultrathin Tropical Tropopause Clouds (UTTCs) with optical depths around 10<sup>-4</sup> have been detected in the western Indian ocea...
